    You are probably ok....speedo's on cars are normally about 10% below actual speed.

    On a side note...if these vans are not for raising revenue and are for saving lives....how come it was parked inbound on the naas road on saturday at lunch time?
    3 lanes of traffic with a 60kms speed limit......trying to think of how many horrific deaths have been caused on this stretch of road:rolleyes:
